Our house (1998) has a 5/8 or 3/4" plastic main from street, and a brass water meter, feeding a 1" copper house main.
This is attached to the (underside of) floor joists with two-hole clips and runs across the basement. At the opposite corner
of the house, the 1" exits out and feeds our irrigation system.
(Prior to this is a tee which feeds all the house water)
Problem is; when our sprinkler system is on, the water meter makes a rapid "thug, thug, thug, thug" sound that you can hear throughout the house. It's not too loud, but our system comes on at 4:00 AM, and I can hear it then.
Will armor-flexing, (and using larger clips) on the main eliminate this?
Your suggestions are welcome.
